Acute Muscle Soreness
 Lactic acid and potassium build-up
stimulating pain receptor during and
after exercise
Aerobic
 Using oxygen
Anaerobic
 Not using oxygen
Cardiac Output
 The amount of blood pumped by the
heart
 Determined by;
 Stroke volume x heart rate
Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness
 Occurs 1 to 5 days following
unaccustomed or sever exercise
 Involves actual damage to the muscle
Duration
 The time spent in a single exercise
session
Endurance
 The capacity to continue a physical
performance over a long period of
time
Exercise
 Physical exertion of sufficient
intensity, duration and frequency to
achieve or maintain fitness, or other
health or athletic objectives
 Exercise is a Planned Event!!
Fatigue
 A loss of power to continue a given
level of physical performance
Frequency
 How often a person repeats a
complete exercise session
Heart Rate
 The heart’s rate of pumping
 Measured in Beats per Minute(bpm)
Intensity
 The level of exertion during exercise.
 Measured in beats per minute
(aerobic) or a percentage
(weightlifting)
Maximal Oxygen Uptake
 Is the maximal rate which oxygen can
be taken up, distributed, and used by
the body during physical activity
Overload
 Subjecting a part of the body to
efforts greater than it is accustomed
to, in order to elicit a training
response
Power
 Speed and strength combined
 Work performed by unit of time :
 Work equals force times distance divided
by time
Progressive Resistance
 Exercise in which the amount of
resistance is increased, to further
stress the muscle, after it has
become accustomed to handling a
lesser resistance
Set
 A group of repetitions of an exercise
movement done consecutively,
without rest, until a given number or
fatigue is reached
Strength
 The amount of muscular force that
can be exerted
Stroke Volume
 The quantity of blood ejected with
each beat
Training Heart Rate
(THR)
 The heart rate at which one aim’s to
exercise
 Also called Target Heart Rate
